Congrats on exploring a seller finance deal—exciting step!

It’s great to hear you’re exploring out-of-state investing, especially given the high entry points in San Diego.

Having a cashflow breakeven property with a loss for tax purposes can have some tax benefits that you should consider exploring. ...

If you discover one that sounds potentially relevant, and you have not explored it - see if you can still get hold of your accountant before 12/31 and ask them.

Hi BP Community,I’m exploring adding one or two ADUs to a property I own in the Miracle Mile area, near 3rd Street and La Brea in Los Angeles.

This would help us benchmark and explore simpler alternatives while understanding how complex the structure mentioned above truly is.I assume they are not actively managing their business?

Creative financing: Explore seller financing or subject-to deals for your next property, which often require less upfront cash and bypass traditional lending limits.You’re on the right track thinking long-term—house hacking and leveraging your duplex are great moves.

Another option is to explore private lenders or HELOCs to cover the equity.

You can also leverage stable income for creative financing and explore BRRRR in markets like Rochester to build equity and cash flow.

Have you identified a property yet, or are you still exploring options?
